2.7. Check of tires (through each 400 kilometers or weekly)

Care of tires is reduced to check of depth of a protector, pressure in tires (it is checked on cold tires), to identification of traces of abnormal wear and damages by which it is possible to determine a condition of details of a forward suspension bracket and a steering. (photo).

7.2 Protector check by a depth gage

Regularly delete the stones which have got stuck in a protector or sharp subjects. Periodically remove wheels and clear external and internal surfaces of a disk of dirt. If there are doubts concerning consequences of any found damages, address for consultation in a shinoremontny workshop. Rearrange wheels with the specified periodicity (see below).

Types and causes of wear of a protector of the tire

Types and causes of wear of a protector of the tire

1.Lateral wear of a protector

Reasons:

insufficient pressure in the tire (bilateral wear of a protector)

wrong disorder of forward wheels (unilateral wear of a protector).

passing of turns at great speed

long driving without shift of wheels

Way of elimination:

check pressure and restore to the normal

repair or replace suspension bracket details

go with moderate speed

rearrange wheels

2. Cross-section angular wear

Reasons:

Wrong convergence of wheels

Way of elimination:

Adjust a convergence

3.Wear of the central part of the tire

Reasons:

elevated pressure in tires long driving without shift of wheels

Way of elimination:

check pressure and restore to normal rearrange wheels

4. Non-uniform wear

Reasons:

violation of disorder of wheels or corner of a longitudinal inclination of an axis of turn
